Clear cybersecurity and compliance guidance for small organizations.
If you’re unsure what applies to your business, what actually matters, or where to begin, I help you turn uncertainty into clear, manageable next steps.
Advisory only. No tools to buy. No systems to hand over. You stay in control—your existing IT support can act on your timeline.
Based in Minnesota. Remote advisory available for select clients.
Many small organizations tell me things like this:
(If a few of these sound familiar, you’re not alone.)
“We’re not sure which rules actually apply to us.”
“We have IT support, but we still feel uncertain.”
“We rely on vendors and cloud tools—who’s responsible when something breaks?”
“We worry about ransomware, outages, or data loss.”
“We want practical priorities, not a massive program.”
“We’d like fewer surprises and calmer decisions.”
How I help
Clarify what applies
I help you understand which expectations are likely relevant to your business, which are not, and which deserve closer attention.
Focus on what matters
Instead of trying to fix everything, we narrow in on the few actions that meaningfully reduce risk.
Prepare for likely problems
We strengthen everyday weak points so common failures don’t turn into expensive or stressful incidents.
What this gives you
Fewer surprises
Clear boundaries and responsibilities reduce last-minute emergencies.
Calmer decisions
A short list of priorities replaces constant second-guessing.
Greater resilience
Practical readiness without building an enterprise-grade program.
How this usually begins
Simple, practical, and respectful of your time.
A short conversation
You explain how your business runs and what’s been on your mind.
Clear feedback
I reflect back what stands out, what likely applies, and where issues tend to arise.
Sensible next steps
You leave with a small, realistic plan you can act on.
No pressure. If we’re not a fit, you’ll still gain clarity.
Optional: how the advisory is structured
You don’t need to learn a new vocabulary to work together. For those who prefer structure, the advisory is organized into four areas.
Clarity on obligations
Understand likely expectations from regulators, insurers, customers, and partners.
Security hygiene essentials
Reduce common failures around accounts, email, devices, and recovery basics.
Vendor and cloud risk
Clarify responsibilities so third-party issues don’t become surprises.
Continuity and resilience
Identify what would hurt most if it failed and prepare realistically.
Start with clarity
Send a short message about your situation. You’ll get a clearer sense of what matters—without obligation.
